But what happened to Duke? Here

Looks like he lost a lot of weight or something.. Definately needs to eat more chow!

Hasbro needs to put back Roadblock, or all the joes will suffer from poor eating ;-)

Just a bad shot.

The big problem is that the shoulders don't really fit well into the sockets. Hopefully that'll be fixed with the production model.

Either way, Hiryu is inheriting that body. The training outfit and the sparring gloves and helmet are so fitting for a martial arts specialist.

I think it's Duke in the outfit he wore when he sparred with Snake-Eyes.
It's even got a removable Reactive Armor chestplate.

You got me there.

I'm strongly considering headswapping the redundant versions of Duke into new versions.
I'm already doing that with training Duke, and I'm really tempted to convert Jungle Duke into a ROC Tunnel Rat.

Thanks man, I was wondering about the composition of the o-ring Cobra nautical set. I just hope they do a good job on the colours.
